High performance integrated energy storage device reported by KAUST team

KAUST · Oct 27

A KAUST team led by Husam Alshareef has developed a microfabricated energy storage device with high energy and power density. The device uses nickel hydroxide as an active electrode material and achieves a volumetric capacitance density of 325 F/cm3. Fabricated using chemical bath deposition at room temperature, the device can power microelectronic devices. Why it matters: This research advances energy storage technology in the region, potentially impacting the development of microelectronics and portable power solutions.
